to be honest I never use additives, usually cause more harm than good. I just try my best to run good gas (shell, Quik Trip, Cheveron), usually that's more than sufficent to last a long time. Pulling out the injectors for a good clean is always better... though 25k is way way way to soon imo. I'd venture more alone the lines of every 60k at min, more like 100k. But, that's just me.

If you use crap like Arco... yea 25k is probably pushing the upper limit. Or if you buy gas at your local grocery store to "save a few bucks."

Now when you guys say run the best do you also mean 91 octane??? I run 87.

87 is fine. Stay away from Arco, and no name fuels. Arco has a bad habbit of useing the bare minimum filtering requierments at their stations. QT is one of the best as they have 4 filtering stages at most of their stations.

Actually, it IS a good idea to run it up now and then. Get the injectors flowing near 100% and it will prevent them from gumming up down the line.

QT 87 octane is what I run. Usually the cheapest in town, That is when we can get gas.

I got a notice in the mail with my statement that they recomend an electronic fuel and oil injection cleaning once every 25k or 2 years that costs $119.95.

Now is this something that I will need? I have been doing the 5k services myself with Mobile 1 truck and suv 5w30 religiously. Any input would help...

Its just a scam to make extra money for the dealership. Im a mechanic and we sell those all the time. Easy money for me though . The only thing i would recommend is a powersteering flush and brakeflush every 2 yrs.

QT is only in certain parts of the country, it's really starting to take off more in Arizona now than before... I think it's pretty much from Kansas City and west in certain areas. At any rate, one of the top tier stations, usually one of the cheapest (aside from arco which is one of the worst gas stations), and they have badass drinks! (of the non adult style).
